Fair enough, that's what I've done (see

I'm not sure with the jargon here, what you mean by "security policy".
If you mean how many games you can join that depends on how many points
you have, you can read about points here:

It's a simple idea once you understand it I think, not as simple as a
hard upper limit but pretty straightforward.
